About the Star Tribune Top Workplaces Program
The Star Tribune Top Workplaces program is powered by the Energage employee survey, which measures 26 key aspects of the workplace experience. Employees provide confidential feedback on topics that matter across all industries, including leadership, communication, workplace culture, employee well-being, growth opportunities, recognition, and confidence in an organization's direction.
Key areas measured include:
• Leadership
• Direction and strategy
• Meaningful work
• Appreciation and recognition
• Employee engagement
• Communication
• Pay and benefits
• Innovation and new ideas
• Values and ethics
• Employee well-being
• Efficiency and execution
• Growth and development opportunities
What makes this recognition especially meaningful is that the results come directly from employee feedback. Top Workplaces benchmarks are built on insights from more than 30 million employees across over 80,000 organizations nationwide, including more than 20 million employees surveyed through the Top Workplaces program itself. This extensive research helps ensure that recognized organizations meet a high standard for workplace culture, employee engagement, and organizational health.
